Skout  Epoch .177 pellet loading?

Mine doesn't deform pellets as I checked when I removed the barrel and the pellets had no damage, but then I didn't get physical with the loading and the odd thing is it only does it with the Barracuda 8s, and they measure at exactly the same size both in length and head size, I am thinking its down to the deferent metal as they seem harder than other pellets.

Pics of my mag, and the last is with the pellet half pushed out so you expect deflection, but it would be in the aperture of the barrel liner at this point which is a pretty good fit.

they have def. fixed the magazine issue.
Skout is a GREAT company.
i shot with a guy this weekend who used a .22 Skout for HFT. he did quite well.

The range

Every year spring time to me is rearrange the range. This year I got a little push from Mother Nature. I went through my pics and pick 1 for each year.
This is 2020 the first target, Center right. A little ruff. View attachment 5583152021 Major digging. The dump truck and excavator were easily my all time favorite toys. Never drove either before I scored them. The changes I did were endless. Had them both for 3 years and sold and miss them. View attachment 5583172021 the range is taking shape. Shoot between the rocks. Frying pans, were noisy. View attachment 558361
2022 busy year on yard. In the fall of 22 I lined the range with 30 tons of rock.
View attachment 5583242023 View attachment 5583252024 I finished my 6 year project on yard, so the range was abandoned. View attachment 558327And this is a month ago. Snow finishing its melt. Notice the maple at the top right. View attachment 558330One week later we had 3 days of freezing rain. That’s the same tree. View attachment 558331Power was dead so I cut off lines. No power 10 days.
It ripped up the range pretty good. That’s Iron wood bowing which I later pulled back with ropes and left tied down. View attachment 558332For the better part of this week I did a major cleanup. And have the sore body to prove it.
A member mentioned cinder blocks and I adopted the idea with I think success. The Maple that fell, I secured it up top and used it to hold 2 poles.
A little gravel to keep it clean when wet.
View attachment 558354This is what I see from my bench. Will make a few small adjustments. I’m looking forward to smacking some targets. View attachment 558355This is 25 yds. to 35 yds. and have a section to the left of this range that can give me 48 yds, which is my next project. Already started. Crow
Wonderful Range , you need paper holders for your 300JR

Results  Meeker's first N50 match of 2025

Oh and @Buckeye68 was on the CALMER side of the range. My side had little tree protection from the wind and my flag tails looked like vertical updrafts in a blender. It was crazy conditions. Somehow I managed a 249 and 250 on my first two cards and then got hammered on my 3rd card, just to bring me back to reality,

FWB  Found a gem.

Just before Easter weekend I bought this FWB 300 Junior. The seller asked if he could send after Easter, which was fine with me. Two weeks before this, from the same seller, I got another FWB and had to pay $55. shipping, delivered to my door. Which was fine with me. Today I had to go to Purolator to pick up my prize. 45 minutes away on highway. Finally got there, and the desk lady says—- They wanted $170. for delivery. I dislocated my jaw. Same case 2 weeks later 3 x’s the money. I said I wasn’t asking for a flight. Then they ask what kind of gun is in there and they have to inspect it. They might not allow the delivery. This is a first. View attachment 558972
Then I’m told it was sent air mail. But, but it came ground. so they can adjust the bill. She got it down to $91. “Robbery”. Call the Police I’ve just been robbed. But agreed to get out of there after a half hour. View attachment 558973
The stock on this club gun has some history. The steel is in great shape. But this thing is so smooth to shoot.View attachment 558971Unfortunately the rear cup on the rear sight is missing. Wasn’t aware of that.
Does anyone know if these are available?View attachment 558974Love the square trigger guard. View attachment 558976
This is a great starter gun.
Blown away with the accuracy shooting as is.

‘Score” before I hit post the guy I got this 300 from called me. I told him about the sight missing and he said he will replace it. 👍
Oh, he also told me it was absolutely sent ground. Purolator was BS me.
Beautiful shooter Crow . Enjoy

New pellet

Hello and welcome to AGN. This is hands down the best forum for airgun enthusiasts. Well your question is probably going to get lots of answers and lots of good suggestions. But it's not as simple as taking the recommendations and then start hitting bullseye. You must test. In my AT44 177 I'm getting my best results from CPHP 9.7,CP piranha 10.5,jsb monsters 13.43 and apollo 9.0 round and pointed. I hope you find a few that work well for you. I was lucky enough to have a member send me a sample package of lead that had worked well in his AT44 177.

Hope you have a good day and again welcome and thanks for joining the best airgun forum

FWB  Found a gem.

You might consider replacing the missing iris with a Gehmann. I don’t know how easy it is to find an original. Been thinking about trying one myself on my 300S. Nice score, they are magnificent rifles.

Umarex  Underrated?

The only problem with the Airsaber and Benjerman Airbow are states with hunting restrictions...They absoutley work..They are cheaper and much more reliable than crossbows.. I can't afford to buy a new crossbow every year or two with the limbs breaking..My last Barnett crossbow the limbs broke and i converted it to a stock for my .510 Texan... crossbows have a amazing hunting season...But crossbows themselves are not relible in most price points..You can spend $3500.00 on a Ravin and it breaks... My Airsaber is 3 years old and does not miss a beat...I can grab it and it consistantly hits and holds point of aim..Its too accurate to shoots groups with under 70 yards with Easton 2219s without hitting arrows... 3inch groups at 120 yards tethered without wind.. The only thing i going to do with my Airsaber in future is to Add a moderator to it..Hopefully this year.. I only dont shoot my Airsaber that much due to being handicap..I hate retrieving arrows from target...
Dam u guys got me beat im definitely amateur compared to some folks here how did u get those Easton arrows to work ? I agree with the xbow statement I have a 350$ bear xbow and I'm grabbing that cobra adder xbow .I had 2 fingers on my left hand amputated below the knuckle so easy effort what I prefer .plus I drive to Arkansas from ny to hunt hog with my airsaber. I love it I think I don't give it its due tho.

FX  M3 or king?

Hi, im going to buy a New toy and dont know who to choose.
The king is new and the m3 is slightly used (m3 is 100$ less)
I have had m3 before and kinda know it and was happy with it, but the king has since its realese always been a wet dream.
I shoot for fun and nothing specaial but I am a "power whore" and am abit sceptical to the kings 600mm vs m3 700mm power wise, I will shoot in .25.

Any toughts? :)
